A lot of carriers don't support eSIM, especially internationally, and here in the UK a lot of carriers only offer eSIMs on specific tarrifs. Some also put restrictions on the type of devices you're allowed to use them in which is hard to enforce with physical SIMs.
There should be regulation to force carriers to adopt eSIM? Physical SIM cards are an anachronism that should have died a long time ago.
That sucks! I suppose my own experience may be more unique than I had thought.
